Official Vikings Thread

Skol used to express friendly feelings towards one’s companions before drinking: ‘Skol!’ And he raised his glass.
The origins is early 17th century (a Scots use): from Danish and Norwegian skaal, Swedish skål, from Old Norse skál.

Holy shite, the announcing crew seems to be really out-doing itself today. They're almost gleeful criticizing the Pack and will probably be giving out BJ's to the Vikies in the locker room after the game.

Nothing compared to the criticism on the Packer chat during the game. Hell people were saying 7-9 during the first half. WTF!

Fin caught balls, Crosby made a 40+, and the run clicked for a while. Had we actually stopped Peterson, and the injuries/penalties not happened we would have played just over sad. It's ugly, but I'll grudgingly take the W. Kuhn is NEVER to take a hand off again, especially if it's not 3 and inches.

PS when they figure out that you're running, and start stuffing the run, USE PLAY ACTION!.

It was an ugly game. We just need to thank Ponder and the Vikings coaching staff for not leaning on AP even more. He was an absolute beast and the only reason the game was close. Rodgers willed the team to victory, converting numerous 3rd-and-longs on what ultimately ended up being the game-clinching, 11-minute drive. It was nice to see a running game emerge too.

We'll all be watching the injury report this week. Losing Lang is brutal, while Jordy's injury essentially puts us in the same position we were when Jennings was out. But, any time missed by Lang is critical.

How many injuries can a team possibly suffer? This is getting ridiculous. I'm happy, though, any win over the Vikings is a good one. The running game was actually effective today. The Packers got a bit lucky that the Vikings didn't run it more, and instead allowed Ponder to throw those 2 interceptions. Hopefully in Week 17, the Packers find a way to shut down the run, or at least somewhat contain it.
